These expansions have driven the size and scope of our business to another level and completed our national wide exposure.

Coupled with China’s economic growth continuing to outpace the rest of the world, the demand for commercial property in China is on the rise as emerging Central Business Districts (CBDs) grow in size in various cities. Our foresight and complimentary strategy to develop 21st Century commercial properties alongside residential properties will be a key to capturing the growing opportunity in commercial property as demand picks up. Within Guangzhou City, specifically in the new CBD within Pearl River New Town, we have very early on laid down the ground work to be able to capture today’s strong market share of commercial property in the region by securing over 10 parcels of land to develop close to 2 million sq.m. of commercial projects; in Beijing, we continue to further increase our commercial expertise and exposure with our Beijing R&F Square as a prime example; in addition, we have established partnerships with world class hotel management companies to manage our expanding multi-star hotel portfolio such as Marriott Group, Hyatt Group, Intercontinental Group, Hilton Group and AccorHotels Group, etc. It is anticipated, that our investment in mixed use developments will unlock inherent value to create a new lease of life in our future direction. R&F announced acquisition of 77 hotels from Wanda Group on July, 2017 and will become the largest owner of deluxe hotel assets. Expansion of our commercial development will not only provide for a stable growth in recurring investment income, but will also raise the bar for commercial development in China’s modernization and development standards.

R&F significance and influence in China’s property sector creates a social responsibility to cater to the community’s needs and expectations. Over the past years, we have made generous contributions and donations of over CNY450 million in areas of education, health, safety, catering for the elderly and aiding poverty in various regions.

Spanning extensive years of operating history, not only have we expanded our development portfolio, increased our financing options and developed a systematic management structure, we have accumulated a sizeable land bank in strategic footprints, which we believe, creates a sound foundation to reap the benefits in the coming future.
